Come on in to the Breezy Spoon Diner, where murder is the special of the day!


When Dani O'Shea returns to her sleepy little hometown of East Spoon Creek City after a tour in Afghanistan and buys The Breezy Spoon Diner, she plans to live peacefully, serving up great food, great conversation and down-home hospitality to the friendly locals.


The Breezy Spoon is a big success, and when hunky and flirtatious fireman Mark Adams offers to rent Dani his downstairs apartment, things are really looking up.... until a dead body with a chocolate pie smashed in his face shows up in the dumpster behind the diner!


Trying to get to the bottom of the mystery isn't easy when dealing with the quirky and eccentric residents of East Spoon Creek City, and it gets even harder when the body keeps disappearing and popping up around town! There's not a moment to lose when dark secrets threaten to come to light, and Dani discovers that one of her customers just might be a serial killer!

What can I say it was a great read, you never knew what was going to happen next and the cast of characters was fun and hilarious, which is different from any mystery I have read. It is a great who done it and funny.

I laughed out loud throughout this book. The cast of characters is hysterical. The repartee between our heroine, Dani, and fire fighter, Mark, is so well written and believable. This is a terrific read.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good and goofy getaway
Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2020

I had a good time reading this due to how crazy the characters were. It seemed like they were always joking around, and there were a LOT of characters. Just like in real life, they'd go off on tangents to explain stuff, and I gotta admit sometimes I got a little confused and wondered where the heck the mystery was and how they were going to solve it. It was just very different from the mysteries I'm used to, but somehow in the end, those odds and ends came together and made a bit more sense. I did love Dani and Mark's sense of humor and banter back and forth, and I didn't guess the killer but I'm pretty sure it might not have been too possible to guess and be really right. ;)

5.0 out of 5 stars Funniest Thing I've Read In Just Ages!
Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2018

I had downloaded this book, then didn't get around to reading it. What a mistake on my part! This book is simply uproariously funny--without (thank heaven!) being yet another Janet Evanovich ripoff. This story is coming from a totally original playbook. An outstanding cast of quirky characters, wonderful dialogue, and a totally hilarious mystery make for pure enjoyment. It was well-written, too, aside from a few errors in punctuation and spelling or the occasional missing word--things that should have been caught by careful editing. However, most of these minor errors will sail right over the heads of the average reader, and only we picky purists will find them annoying. That's why I am giving it five stars rather than the four I'd usually award for a book with editing errors; there is nothing so egregious as to detract from the flow of a genuinely delightful read.

This humorous story was such fun! Snarky quips and unbelievable characters and a corpse that keep showing up and then disappearing. I'm planning on reading the whole series now. So on to the next.

3.0 out of 5 stars Very interesting
Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2019
This was a really good book what it took me a while to get into because the grammatical errors and the editing was really bad. I know they weren't trying to have that in the book but I felt like the author just threw this together and even though the book has been out since August of last year you can still make changes to the book to update it. Me being a new person coming to this series and really enjoying the book I just wish this was something the editor would have thought to update like most of the other authors that are on kindle unlimited. Especially if you're selling the book for $2.99

This first book in the Breezy Spoon Diner series kept me reading. It had humor, romance, and a great mystery. I love the lead character Dani I'd he's she is funny and sassy. Her leading man Mark the fireman are made for each other with his sarcasm and wit. The other characters in the book are fun as well. I can't wait to continue reading the rest of this series. If you love culinary mysteries, humor, romance, and assorted characters this is the series for you.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun Story

This was a fun story with fun characters. I especially liked the goobers (as I call them) Cooter and the young waitress, etc. I did not guess the murderer, I had several suspects in mind, but this person was not on my list. The one thing that really bugged me was Millie (?) and her newspaper articles. I know it’s a small town, but libel is law everywhere.

A brilliant start to a series. I laughed out loud lots of times. The plot was good, the characters eccentric and the humour was spot in. Was delighted to find there are several more books in this series - I've already got the next one downloaded and waiting to be read!

LA NOVELA ESTÁ BIEN, LO QUE PASA ES QUE ESPERAS UNA NOVELA DE MISTERIO, PORQUE ASÍ ES COMO TE LA VENDEN, Y EN REALIDAD ES UNA NOVELA COSTUMBRISTA CON ALGO DE MISTERIO. ES LO ÚNICO QUE ME DECEPCIONÓ. POR LO DEMÁS ES UNA LECTURA AMENA.
